Re: Delete my account?
There's no straightforwarded way to do that, as of yet.
But here's how to render your account completely useless same way as if it had been deleted.
1. Go Control Panel > Change my registration information then change your primary email address into something that does not exist as a valid address, like, say, something that reads: [email protected]
2. Go Control Panel > Change my password and start typing 20 or even 30 random characters that you couldn't possibly remember afterwards, as your new password. (keep your eyes closed while doing this, if you like ) Copy/Paste this mumbo-jumbo password into the Retype New Password textbox. Keep the Send the new password to my primary email address parameter un-checked.
3. Logout.
That's all. Your account will be rendered useless given that from now on it refers to a password that you don't remember, and even if you regret it in the future and ask for your password to be sent to you via email, this new password will be sent out there in the giant net trashcan which is called [email protected]...

You may also like to copy something else, like this:
1234
to clear your clipboard of the password
